Prediction: 1-2
Genk
Westerlo play host to Genkt at their Het Kuipje on day 21 of the 2022/2023 Jupiler League campaign. Westerlo aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Leuven, and you should know that they are eyeing their sixth home win of the process. The likes of Bernat, Daci, and Reynolds have been struggling with injuries of late, while Angola forward Igor Vetokele is pushing for a rare start.
The league leaders, on the other hand, moved one step closer to clinching the Jupiler League trophy thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win over Waregem. Genk look unstoppable at the moment, and given Westerlo’s anything but good defensive display in the last league match, we predict that the visitors are going to emerge triumphant in Tuesday’s encounter. To make things even better for the visiting side, defender Daniel Munoz is back from suspension. Wouter Vrancken has no fresh injury worries.
